[Verse 1] (No voice, No Humming) (Rhodes piano alone) Running my own clock, ticking on my terms (clean guitar answers) No more fitting in the spaces that I didn’t earn (sub bass enters softly) The world can chase the sun, let ’em run the race I found a quiet rhythm in a private space (drums still waiting) They used to weigh my silence, misread the design But every single hour on this side is mine (drums enter lightly) [Chorus] (background harmony enters softly) No worries, no weight on my mind I sleep at night, I’m on my own time (clean guitar answers) Let the noise fade out, let the curtains close Where the pressure ends is where the freedom grows (drums pull back) Yeah… (pause) I sleep at night On my own time [Verse 2] (Rhodes carries groove) Left the heavy lifting of the expectations back there Trading all the static for some cool calm air (guitar answers) Don’t need an invitation to the masquerade I’m sitting with the peace that patience made (sub bass grows warmer) No second guessing futures, no haunting of the past Just a steady anchor that was built to last (pocket drums deepen) [Chorus] No worries, no weight on my mind (background harmony) (No weight…) I sleep at night, I’m on my own time (My own time…) Let the noise fade out, let the curtains close Where the pressure ends is where the freedom grows Yeah… I sleep at night On my own time [Bridge] (drums disappear) (Rhodes piano alone) (wait) Funny how I spent so many years Thinking freedom lived somewhere ahead (clean guitar answers) One day I stopped running (pause) And realized… (sub bass returns slowly) I was already there (no drums) No crowds to impress No battles to win No voices deciding Who I should’ve been (wait) (KICK RETURNS SOFT) I don’t chase the daylight anymore I let tomorrow come to me [Verse 3] (drums stay light) Sun coming up but I ain’t counting hours Stopped measuring life by somebody else’s power (clean guitar answers) Everything I needed was waiting in the still Some call it slowing down I call it living for real (background harmony rises) Living for real… [Final Chorus] (full drums open up) No worries, no weight on my mind (background harmony stronger) (No weight…) I sleep at night, I’m on my own time (My own time…) Let the noise fade out, let the curtains close (clean guitar answers) Where the pressure ends is where the freedom grows (background harmony layers) Yeah… (pause) I sleep at night On my own time [Outro] (drums fade) (clean guitar takes lead) (background harmonies repeat softly) On my own time… On my own time… (Rhodes and guitar continue) (vocals fade) (guitar answers one final time) (pause) (end)
